Train Yourself to Always Think Positively

By Jason McKinley


1. Ask for guidance. Only Creator knows what will happen in the days ahead. He will surely appreciate a few minutes of praying and asking for guidance from Him. Also, have faith that He is more than willing to grant our requests as long as it is for our own good. With Creator as our guide, we don't have any reason not to say and believe in the thought that I can do this. I can make it through this day. Nothing is impossible. After all, Creator is with me.

2. Love yourself. Before you expect for other people to love and adore you, it is always you who needs to love yourself first. Make a positive commitment to yourself, to learning, work, family, friends, nature, and other worthwhile causes. Praise yourself as much as you praise others once in a while. When you start feeling confident about yourself, positive thoughts will naturally flow to your mind.

3. Be detached from the outcome. They say that life is like a Ferris Wheel; sometimes, you're on the top, and sometimes at the bottom. This means that there will be times in our lives where some things would not turn out according to what we want them to be. Don't be annoyed if you don't get what you desire. However, do your best in everything you do. Only, don't get too attached on the probable results that may only cause disappointments and upsets.

4. Keep a list of your goals and actions. Familiarize yourself with things you want to accomplish and with the ways you must undertake to complete them. By the time you are certain of what you want to do and carry out in your life, a stronger mind and will power will exist within you.

5. Keep track of your mental and physical health. This way, you will know how far you can keep believing. Know yourself. There is no other person in the world who can tell who you really are. Know your passions, favorites, and principles. Spend some quality time by yourself - reading, listening to music, day dreaming, and the likes. If you know yourself completely, you will be aware of how far can you go physically, mentally, and emotionally.

6. Kiss your worries goodbye. At the end of everyday, before going to sleep, there is no need to keep bad experiences and unhappy moments that had happened in the day within you. Let them go, throw them out of the window and kiss them goodbye. Dream sweetly. As a new day unfolds, new hope arises. Keep believing. Always have faith.

7. Treat Yourself. After each goal that you have set and reached, reward yourself in some way. Treat yourself to a dinner out, a movie or buy yourself that something that you have been wanting for awhile. Be kind to yourself. Reward yourself for your accomplishments along the way, and you will have more motivation to continue striving and reaching for your goals. Let your mind know that reaching your goals is fun and rewarding.
